John Deere 5103 w/ 512 LDR
Going a few months without a tractor was worth it.

Somehow, I figured out how to convince my wife we needed a tractor and skid steer. It helped that my F-I-L partnered up with me on the Cat.

Now, if I could just get some seat time.

Good looking pair! Any reason you went with the CAT over the Deere skid steer?

Mainly the pilot controls...didn't want to wait until the new Deere's come out.

Also, I was really impressed with the attention I got from the Cat sales guy, versus all of the other dealers I talked to. He brought 2 machines out to demo and acted like he wanted our business. The other guys acted like they were doing me a favor just to get me a quote.

#3 - Great financing 3.88% for 72 months.

Yeah, I understand about the pilot controls. Deere should have theirs hitting the lots in May. Congrats on the new toys!!

Wow, what an addition to the toybox!

Congratulations, and feel free to post more pics of those beautiful machines for us to drool over!

Did you get a loader for the 4720 then?

No, it's ready for a loader, but I didn't get one. Really, no need for a loader on the tractor with the Cat around.

If I start losing the Cat to too many jobsites, I might have to spring for the loader later on.
